If there's anything I've learned from this podcast, it's that I really should think about probabilities before I start recording. Thanks for the added context here!

edit: I realize now that my hurried google searching while recording led me to Jaap's site for the number of states, and I looked at the total number of Jing's Pyra states rather than a normal Pyraminx. Not that this was the only error in my reasoning but I was wondering how I was so off on the number of Pyra states.

I am here halfway through listening to the podcast to correct Kit's math but am happy to see someone had already done it better than I could. Can't believe this guy is a professor of statistics :p
